In the Gaahmg language, there are di8erent types of words: nouns, verbs, pronouns, adjectives, adverbs, connectors, and others. This dictionary lists many words and tells what kind of word each is. It also gives the meaning of each word in English and Arabic. Each word is listed according to the order of the alphabet letters so that it is easier to 9nd the words. This book also shows how each word should be spelled. The lessons of the Gaahmg Consonant and Vowel Book and the Gaahmg Grammar Book should be learned and used along with this dictionary.

It is especially important for those writing books to check the spelling of words using this book. If all writers spell the way that words are written in this dictionary, it will beeasier for readers to recognize each word when they read them. Any words in this book that are not spelled correctly or have the wrong English or Arabic meaning should be marked in pencil. You should then tell the authors the correct spelling or meaning so that they can correct the next printing.

HHHHoooowwww ttttoooo RRRReeeeaaaadddd aaaannnn EEEEnnnnttttrrrryyyy iiiinnnn tttthhhhiiiissss DDDDiiiiccccttttiiiioooonnnnaaaarrrryyyy

When you look in the dictionary, you will see many lines of words. Some look similar to the example below:

aaaaaaaarrrreeee [áàrɛ] nnnn grass name القش من aaaaaaaarrrreeeegggg [áàrɛg] نوع

Here’s what the words mean:

• The word aaaaaaaarrrreeee in bbbboooolllldddd is called the ‘entry’. All the words after it give information about this word. All entries are listed according to the order of the Gaahmg alphabet letters. See the GGGGaaaaaaaahhhhmmmmgggg AAAApppphhhhllllaaaabbbbeeeetttt OOOOrrrrddddeeeerrrr below for the list of letters in order. Entries that are nouns are in the singular form (only one of the noun). Entries that are verbs are in the in9nitive form (following eeee ddddoooooooossss eeee ‘he begins to’).

• Next, [áàrɛ] shows the sound of the word in symbols that can be used for any language of the world. This is so that people who don’t know Gaahmg can pronounce the word correctly.

• Next, the letter nnnn in bbbboooolllldddd iiiittttaaaalllliiiiccccssss shows the word category (type of word) is a noun. See the WWWWoooorrrrdddd CCCCaaaatttteeeeggggoooorrrryyyy AAAAbbbbbbbbrrrreeeevvvviiiiaaaattttiiiioooonnnnssss below for a list of all possible wordcategory abbreviations.

• Next, the words grass name is the de9nition of the entry and shows its meaning in English.

• The words القش من .show the meaning in Arabic نوع• The word aaaaaaaarrrreeeegggg in bold is the plural of the entry. It is how to say more than one

of the noun. Only entries that are nouns, adjectives, quantities, or demonstrativeshave a plural form. Some nouns do not have a plural form. These are marked with the word category nnnn....ssssgggg. Some plural nouns do not have a singular form and are marked with the word category nnnn....ppppllll. See SSSSiiiinnnngggguuuullllaaaarrrr aaaannnndddd PPPPlllluuuurrrraaaallll NNNNoooouuuunnnnssss below for a list of the most common ways of forming singular and plural nouns.

• Finally, [áàrɛg] shows the sound of the plural.

Now look at another example entry.

aaaahhhhdddd [əd] vvvv....tttt make, change ابقيها

• The word aaaahhhhdddd in bbbboooolllldddd is the entry. • The word [əd] shows the sound of the word in symbols used for all languages of

the world.• The vvvv....tttt shows the word is a transitive verb. It is an action word that can have an

object. Entries that are verbs are in the in9nitive form. This means it can follow the words eeee ddddoooooooossss eeee ‘he begins to’.

Here is another entry.

ccccaaaawwwwrrrr [càɔr] nnnn 1111)))) rabbit ارنب 2 )))) story قصص ccccaaaawwwwrrrreeeeeeeegggg [càɔrɛɛg]

• ccccaaaawwwwrrrr is the entry and singular form of the noun.• [caɔr] shows the sound of the word.• nnnn shows the entry is a noun.• Next, we read 1111)))) rabbit ارنب 2 )))) story قصص . These are two de9nitions

(meanings) of the entry in English and Arabic, where the de9nitions are related (similar) in some way. 1111)))) rabbit ارنب is the most common meaning. 2222)))) story.is the next most common meaning قصص

Here are two other entries.

aaaaaaaayyyy1111 [ááɛ] nnnn honey عسل aaaaaaaayyyygggg [ááɛg] aaaaaaaayyyy2222 [ààɛ] nnnn termite اصرار

• There is a small number 1111 after the entry aaaaaaaayyyy1111. This means there is another wordaaaaaaaayyyy2222 that has the same letters but a completely di8erent meaning. The word aaaaaaaayyyy1111

means ‘honey’ and aaaaaaaayyyy2222 means ‘termite’. The two words are not related, and justhappen to have the same spelling.

• [aaɛ] shows the sound or pronunciation in an alphabet used for all languages of the world. It shows the sound of aaaaaaaayyyy [aaɛ] ‘honey’ (with High tone) is di8erent than the sound of aaaaaaaayyyy [aaɛ] ‘termite’ (with Low tone).

• nnnn shows the word category of both words is a noun.• honey and termite are the de9nitions in English.• .are the de9nitions in Arabic اصرار and عسل• aaaaaaaayyyygggg is the plural form of aaaaaaaayyyy honey.• [ááɛg] is the sound of the plural form.

Now look at this entry.

kkkkuuuurrrrdddd [kurd] (kkkkoooorrrr say, speak) vvvv....cccc 1111)))) read قراءه قراءهاقراء قراءهاقراء قراءهاقراء 2 //// اقراء )))) tell, informkkkkoooorrrr [kɔr] vvvv....tttt say, speak كالم كالمحديث كالمحديث كالمحديث //// حديث {{{{kkkkoooorrrr,,,, kkkkoooorrrrrrrraaaa}}}} {{{{kkkkuuuurrrrdddd}}}}

• kkkkuuuurrrrdddd is the entry• The word ( kkkkoooorrrr say, speak) shows that kkkkuuuurrrrdddd ‘read’, ‘tell, inform’ is made from the

word kkkkoooorrrr ‘say, speak’ and has a di8erent meaning. The bold word between parentheses kkkkoooorrrr is also listed as a separate entry.

• When you go to the entry kkkkoooorrrr, the word {{{{kkkkuuuurrrrdddd}}}} is listed as a subentry between braces {{{{ }}}}. We donꞌt know the meaning of {{{{kkkkuuuurrrrdddd}}}} by looking at the entry kkkkoooorrrr. To learn this, we must go to the entry kkkkuuuurrrrdddd.

• The words {{{{kkkkoooorrrr,,,, kkkkoooorrrrrrrraaaa}}}} show that kkkkoooorrrr,,,, kkkkoooorrrrrrrraaaa is also listed as a separate entry in another place in the dictionary.

Now look at another entry.

aaaahhhhssssaaaahhhhrrrr [əsər] Bw (Arabic) nnnn army عسكرى aaaahhhhssssaaaahhhhrrrrgggg [əsərg] جندى

• The words Bw (Arabic) show this entry aaaahhhhssssaaaahhhhrrrr is borrowed from Arabic.

[sɛmɛɛg] K,B) semag G) simiag L) somiag

• Entries in this dictionary such as sssseeeemmmmeeeeeeee are nearly always in the Jog Taw dialect.• The words K,B) sema G) simia L) somia in italics show the entry sssseeeemmmmeeeeeeee is said

di8erently in other dialects. K,B) sema shows the word is said sema the Kuulaahg and Buwahg dialects. G) simia shows the word is said simia in the Goor dialect. L) somia shows the word is said somia in the Kukuli dialect. If a word is not listed for a certain dialect, it may be said the same as the entry in theTaw dialect.

There are several ways that nouns have singular and plural forms. Some nouns add a su]x in both the singular and plural forms (as in mmmmoooorrrreeeedddd ‘vegetable’ mmmmoooorrrreeeegggg ‘vegetables’). Other nouns only add a su]x in the plural form (as in rrrriiiimmmmaaaaaaaahhhh ‘star’ rrrriiiimmmmaaaaaaaahhhhgggg ‘stars’). Still other nouns that are uncountable only have a singular form (such as bbbbuuuuiiiillll ‘fog’). Nouns that are collectives only have a plural form (such as iiiiiiiigggg ‘milk’).
